T RACE Linear & Telescopic Guides
T RACE products are well known for their originality in both the dimensions and geometric shapes and for their innovative production processes. C-shaped rails with internal raceways, coupled with roller sliders or ball cage sliders, offer the best performance and size available on the market. These products are well suited for applications where environmental conditions are critical and where ease of installation is required. T RACE provides:
- Increased load/movement capacities
- Much increased corrosion resistances
- Easy assembly
- High rigidity and high capacity for excellent durability
- Low cost
